  1. i was lucky enough to be very young (maybe even not born ) before this record was released yet still tracked down a sealed original when I started to collect recrods ( before I then sold them again) Was a nice treat opening this after 30 odd years of laying around untouched...one of my children later dropped +scratched it!....sold them ( LP and children) and bought a cd from those nice people at Waters Cracking record and very very different
  2. Wow Fascinating resource. Thanks for sharing it (them ) with us BTW never heard of the Buddy Montgomery thing on Impulse (cover attached I think/hope)
  3. yup yup Had them and they are now 8 and 12 and still testin me out in new and different ways and come home with attitude 'issues' and yes I am still the meanest /strictist man on earth but yes I do (like Kevin) get the 'you children are so well behaved. The potty stuff will seem to last months ( it will be probably be days or weeks), the temper stuff you can manage with consequence type treatment....as suggested further up. The issue is about control...usually them finding how they can control you and you finding how much you need to control them. As for nice things...forget em....hide em, store em away.....we had nothing vaguely 'nice' under four foot for years.......still got my speaker covers on 'just in case' they get fingers inserted into woofers etc Have fun. Remember the real embarassing things ....they are sooooooooooo nice to remind them about later....ie you used to stamp your feet like that with potty training....its lovely the venom that comes into their eyes.
  4. its worth getting hold of if you can. there isn't enough of this collaboration around from this era in my opinion
  5. Its this one I think. Think I saw it, sampled it feelin really excited and left it in the pile. BUt I have done that to many many records and cds
  6. I must admit . I like this sort of stuff right down to the replica logos and all...it represents an era...nice and well done AND a stonkin compilation too!
  7. yup part of his select box set
  8. still works for me. I have seen a dvd of him at berghausen and Rust (these clips look the same)...brill line up with Lonnie Smith even with all the rain really nice couple of sessions
  9. I have to agree with all the above. good overlooked record by bjp
  10. fav tipple at the moment- some Pommeau I brought back from France Its to die for Apple Brady ( Calvados) blended with cider Heaven has come in a bottle
  11. Had a bit of a shock when I was away in France and saw and advert for Rhoda Scott playing live !! After I returned to the UK of course but nice to see all the same
  12. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/4748292.stm Sudan man forced to 'marry' goat A Sudanese man has been forced to take a goat as his "wife", after he was caught having sex with the animal. The goat's owner, Mr Alifi, said he surprised the man with his goat and took him to a council of elders. They ordered the man, Mr Tombe, to pay a dowry of 15,000 Sudanese dinars ($50) to Mr Alifi. "We have given him the goat, and as far as we know they are still together," Mr Alifi said. Mr Alifi, Hai Malakal in Upper Nile State, told the Juba Post newspaper that he heard a loud noise around midnight on 13 February and immediately rushed outside to find Mr Tombe with his goat. "When I asked him: 'What are you doing there?', he fell off the back of the goat, so I captured and tied him up". Mr Alifi then called elders to decide how to deal with the case. "They said I should not take him to the police, but rather let him pay a dowry for my goat because he used it as his wife," Mr Alifi told the newspaper.
  13. You would be quackers not to -_-
  14. You should seek out later Mal - after his breakdown and recovery. The later stuff is wonderful.
  15. dunno but its 2.54 long
  16. i had bossa nova soul samba by Ike Quebec Was he a visionary or what...he is ahead of these new guys with added nova AND samba - anything less would be like mp3 ripped at 45k yuk!
  17. I have had Reflections for some time now and love it to bits. I also have many of Mal Waldron cds from Prestige (had the lps before too). Loved to listen to them for another view on life.

    its them bloody geeks again
  19. dunno I will still have lots of blue notes etc (as long as they do not all rot) and if I am honest when I am there I hope I have learnt to appreciate more of what I have and crave less for what I do not Music wise of course! and yes I am being smarmy but sometimes I miss having the old cds back out and have a delve into nostalgia. Yes sure I have a zillion and one ways to access mp3 etc but sat with a mosaic box or a pile of Sonny Clark cds is my idea of heaven. Spent years building my collection....got 98-99% of what I wanted originally and found new stuff many times over...have I listened to all of it (sssshhh- no I ain't...got years left though) In the future we will probably demand more, instant supplies and there I fear they will have us over the barrell as we crave a copy of a rare Kenny Burrell session and the big boys say - help yourself - download or what ever for $5 and its yours for a year and then its gone.......that is what I fear. As for crappy quality Cds David- I dunno........I had a whole stash of records- some lovely, some even lovelier, some - well they were cheap . Maybe save my old Japanese Blue Notes I do not miss em any more if I am honest. I have the same on cds now save the odd one I never wanted and do not miss it. I do prefer to have a retail cd though as a cdr misses artwork and notes although comes a close second if it ain't on cd yet Quality products in my collection, probably like yours I cherish as I did within my record collection. I treated my Box set of the Other Side of Blue Note from Japan with reverence, same with my Tina Brooks mosaic set but as for the old tatty 70's Blue notes...well I had em but they were not as nice. Its the same with cds in my opinion... I picked up the rare tracks 4 cd japanese blue note thing (along the same line as the box set above but for the 4000 series.......) not as nice? Uhmmm yes and no in different ways Where was I ? Ok ranting maybe The Future mate will mean mega corps getting more of you dough for less foot tappin music thats for sure and it sure has gotta sving man
  20. It is very nice and well worth a reissue ( in of of course my humblest of opinion) Nice selection of different material that I am eternally grateful to have found.
  21. hmmmmmmmmmm
  22. then that would push me to Sonny Rollins but he was born in 1930 wasn't he?
  23. Actually , thinking about it again I would go with Johnny Hodges perhaps...ooooohh now I am being indecisive
  24. charlie parker?
  25. I am devastated (and hungry now) Off for more revision
